to the 'T' (whatever that means). Take it over

BTW, thanks for the Tabulus the Flat. I have forgotten about it but for you

cheers

Evisse the Blue · 07-25-2004, 04:25 AM

T? huh? where? *scans around for any stray Ts*
No Ts here, except the one fromTabulus the Flat. Lol, here's an excuse to post the link to this for others to see/remember!

New quote is:

"You are altogether wrong", we argued. "And be sure to say it exactly like this, unless you're parted from a group of outsiders. They couldn't have been further away from the town center of Landia back then."

HerenIstarion · 08-08-2004, 02:46 AM

That'd be Gandalf to Radagast, as cited by him to the Council of Elrond:

Quote:

Your information was correct, But do not put it that way, if you meet any of the inhabitants. You are near the borders of the Shire now

Evisse the Blue · 08-08-2004, 04:40 AM

Yes, that's it!

HerenIstarion · 08-08-2004, 12:58 PM

Hallo, she cried to Shieldzwerg, we came to loose our Moon!

"Farewell", he said to Gandalf. "I go to find the Sun".

Legolas to Gandalf, the Ring goes South.

HerenIstarion · 08-08-2004, 01:38 PM

I could not stand the temptation to turn Gandalf into Shieldzwerg

Correct, take it over again

That's right!

HerenIstarion · 08-12-2004, 04:40 AM

Probably, this water is the pool which hides the ent-lead that was dug up!

HerenIstarion · 09-01-2004, 01:34 AM

anyone?

Estelyn Telcontar · 09-01-2004, 01:55 AM

It's not too hard to guess that this quote is about gold, buried under/in a mountain, so that suggests 'The Hobbit' as its source. Since my time is short, unfortunately, could you please tell me if that's the right book in which to search for it?

HerenIstarion · 09-01-2004, 02:44 AM

the quote is indeed related to the plot of the Hobbit, and it is a hobbit who doth quoteth, but one should look for it in the FoTR

Estelyn Telcontar · 09-01-2004, 12:34 PM

That took a bit of detective work, but I finally found it! Merry is the speaker.

Quote:

That must be the stone that marked the place where the trolls' gold was hidden.

HerenIstarion · 09-01-2004, 11:45 PM

Aye, m'lady, your sight for hidden things is sharp!

Pray proceed

I surely feel like a hint

Estelyn Telcontar · 09-19-2004, 05:50 AM

It is spoken in first person and can be found in RotK.

HerenIstarion · 09-20-2004, 05:59 AM

Ah, thank you, that was helpful

That was Sam to Frodo, on the Mount Doom:

‘Go up! Go up!’ she whispered to the giant among the roots,’Don’t run down there, just tear it apart’

HerenIstarion · 11-11-2004, 01:39 PM

I usually use Giant to turn the Dwarf inside out, you know

Estelyn Telcontar · 11-11-2004, 01:48 PM

Ah, that clue was very helpful! I found it in The Hobbit:

Quote:

"Come down! Come down!" he shouted to the dwarves on the branch. "Don't stay up there and be netted!"

...'he', of course, being Bilbo.

HerenIstarion · 11-12-2004, 12:47 AM

Yes, definitely

Estelyn Telcontar · 11-19-2004, 02:10 AM

Here's a new one:

It is seldom on purpose that young bachelors lose in forgetting pictures of people that someday will be unnecessary for the stupid to be unaware of.

Estelyn Telcontar · 11-19-2004, 02:39 AM

Awwwww, was it that easy or are you just that good, HI?!

Right, of course, and your turn.

HerenIstarion · 11-19-2004, 02:59 AM

Nay, it was just easy (though gracefully done) - young bachelors was a clue, and the scope of search thence was limited to either Ioreth and her sayings, or Fangorn

I have to think a bit to contrive the next one, though

cheers

HerenIstarion · 11-24-2004, 08:40 AM

Damn you, Lady Wheeldwarf!’ shouted Full ‘All of it! And I even planted thorns over the threshold, when you went away from me!'

Evisse the Blue · 01-04-2005, 04:07 PM

Can you give a hint?

Morgoth damn you, Lady Wheeldwarf, M'am!’ shouted Fully Fool ‘All of it! And I even planted thorns over the threshold, when you went away from me!'

Besides, wheel is used as opposite of wand. There are two creatures dwarf may be at daggers drawn with, of course. Fully Fool requires no further commenting, eh?

Evisse the Blue · 01-05-2005, 01:53 PM

'Lor bless you, Mr Gandalf, sir!' said Sam. 'Nothing! Leastways I was just trimming the grass-border under the window, if you follow me.'

HerenIstarion · 01-05-2005, 01:59 PM

Correct

Lor Bless you, Miss Evisse, the floor is yours

Evisse the Blue · 01-05-2005, 02:17 PM

"Your teeth are quite familiar while your number has a peculiar taste. Giants! All the gibberish I have spoken made lies seem false."

Doesn't sound very encouraging does it?

**The Saucepan Man** · 01-05-2005, 08:18 PM

Hroom, once I substituted Hobbits for Giants, I immediately thought of Treebeard. On discounting him, there was only one other I could think of who reacts to Hobbits in such a way ...

Quote:

Your tongue is strangely changed; but the name sounds not unfitting so. Hobbits! No report that I have heard does justice to the truth.

Theoden to Merry and Pippin at Isengard.

Evisse the Blue · 01-06-2005, 09:04 AM

That's right, well done!

Evisse the Blue · 02-26-2005, 07:30 AM

Sorry for the extended delay. Here's a new one:

Quote:

But we are forbidden to speak of such things, things with which we are well acquainted even more so than we are with flying, Miss Earthwoman … These things are normal, and you would be better off without normality over there.

Anyone?

It's easy if you work out who Miss Earthwoman is ...
